Following a good night's sleep after the flight from Europe I spent Friday wandering around Central Sydney and just relaxing. The weather was great and it was good to see the Opera House and the Harbour Bridge again, to say nothing of the shops. I always enjoy seeing the splendid clocks in the arcade at the Queen Victoria Building.
The clocks at the QVB
In the evening Michael and his girlfriend Bille flew down from Armidale in a borrowed Cessna 310. They had suffered a few delays as the plane's battery was flat and a jump start was needed! Anyway they did arrive in the end. Although it was late when they finally arrived from Bankstown Airport by taxi, we set off to The Rocks for dinner and found a waterfront restaurant. The meal was great and we were able to watch the coloured lights how changing on the roofs of the Opera House.
Apparently all part of Sydney's Festival of Light. and we then began to notice other light shows and art works around as we walked back to the hotel. Some of them were designed for kids to play in whilst others changed the facades of buildings, all very interesting.
